Léon the Chameleon: A Special Story
Léon the Chameleon: A Special Story
Léon the Chameleon is our first book, and we are incredibly proud to share it with you. Written by myself, Evariste Ekamonle, and illustrated by Isaac Ekamonle, this story was inspired by classic children’s books like "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" and "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." Our goal was to create a story that captivates young readers, much like those timeless classics. This book is designed to help children with early literacy by offering a playful and engaging way to learn through interactive storytelling. We hope it finds a cherished spot on your child’s bookshelf and becomes a favorite during storytime.

A Father’s Inspiration
A Father’s Inspiration
As a father of two daughters, I’m constantly inspired by the books they love—especially those featuring dinosaurs, silly characters, and interactive stories like "Pat the Bunny." My daughters' excitement for storytime, their love for playful rhymes, and their fascination with learning something new every day have deeply influenced my work. It’s this personal experience that has guided the creation of Léon the Chameleon, written by myself, Evariste Ekamonle, and illustrated by my brother, Isaac Ekamonle. We poured our hearts into this project, hoping it would bring as much joy to your children as it has brought to ours. Our book's cover image is crafted to be inviting and engaging, making it a perfect addition to any child’s bookshelf.
